Watford claimed a vital three points

Arsenal came into this game unbeaten in the month of January and on the back of a stellar performance in the FA Cup. Having won 5 and drawn 1 game in all competitions in January and Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck returning from injury, it was the perfect time to face a Watford side that had won just a single game – against Burton Albion – all month,

The Hornets had just suffered an embarrassing defeat to Millwall last weekend and were extremely low on confidence coming into this game.

However, none of that showed on the night as they thoroughly outplayed the Gunners, to take away a well-deserved three points, ending the month on a high. For Arsenal, it's back to the drawing board as they look to get their season back on track.
